Gaining weight kinda fast?

Question

Is anyone else gaining weight kinda quick? For those of you who have had a pregnancy already did this ever happen? Will it level out? I’m almost 16 weeks and have gained 12 pounds! I’m terrified, I lost over 50lbs before getting pregnant and maintained that for a year. I am still working out everyday, going for walks with my dog and eating similarly though with a few more sweets I’ll admit. I always did Intermittent Fasting before but worried about doing it during pregnancy. Sorry for the long post! I’m just in a panic! Any advice or anything is welcome TIA 🥰

Answer

I did intermittent fasting prior to getting pregnant as well. I gained about 10lbs by 20 weeks this time. I’m now almost 39 weeks (tomorrow) and I’ve gained 27lbs (I’ve also packed on the water weight this last week; I have swollen hands and feet 😮‍💨-end of pregnancy woes). This is my third baby boy 💙💙💙

Answer

I’m almost 15 weeks and I’ve gained around 10 pounds. I haven’t even thought twice about it honestly.
As long as your doctor isn’t concerned I wouldn’t worry about it.

Answer

I’m not sure what’s considered fast but I’m already up 11lbs at 20 weeks and 5 days.

Answer

Ok so I did intermittent fasting before pregnancy and ate low carb. 
Got pregnant - had to quit fasting and start to eat carbs again. I gained probably a little over 10 pounds first trimester mainly from my diet change 
I will admit I did eat a lot of bread tho and eat often (it’s all I felt I could keep down and nausea so much worse on an empty stomach)
I kept gaining steadily but not as much as right in the beginning. I did walk every day, my activity level was same as pre pregnancy 
At 32 weeks I was up 37 pounds. Had a GD scare that week (was on the verge of GD) so I totally changed my eating habits. Less carbs, stopped eating candy. I ended up losing weight at the end! At 38 weeks I got induced. I was only up 33 pounds when I had baby.
My first week after baby I lost 25 pounds. Within a couple months I was back down to my pre pregnancy weight 
I’d say don’t be too worried about your weight gain during pregnancy but make sure you are eating a balanced diet still!

Answer

I gained super fast in the beginning of both of my pregnancies. With my first, I slowed down a lot in the third trimester and ultimately gained around 37-38 pounds. I didn’t do anything significantly different with this pregnancy, but gained about 10 pounds more. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

I started doing the same, and realized it was the extra sweets I added lol. I just cut them out, and went back to normal weight gain. I'm 36w and I've gained 14lbs. I do have sweets, but not everyday because I will easily gain every oz of that lol.
